ASSURANT, INC. 8-K

What Happened

• On May 21, 2026 Assurant, Inc. announced that at its 2026 annual meeting stockholders approved an amendment to the Assurant 2017 Long Term Equity Incentive Plan (Amended ALTEIP) to increase the plan’s available share reserve by 480,000 shares. The Amended ALTEIP was previously described in the company’s proxy (filed April 6, 2026) and the full text is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the 8‑K.
• At the same meeting, stockholders elected all ten director nominees to the board, ratified PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as Assurant’s independent auditor for fiscal 2026, approved the company’s 2025 executive compensation in a non‑binding vote, and rejected a stockholder proposal on the right to act by written consent.

Key Details

• Date of meeting: May 21, 2026. Amended plan filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the 8‑K.
• ALTEIP vote: 43,536,600 FOR, 663,805 AGAINST, 41,021 ABSTENTIONS; broker non‑votes: 2,506,613.
• Auditor ratification: PwC ratified — 44,144,033 FOR, 2,592,908 AGAINST, 11,098 ABSTENTIONS.
• Say‑on‑pay (non‑binding): 42,958,812 FOR, 1,244,979 AGAINST; Stockholder consent proposal failed: 12,892,508 FOR, 31,302,676 AGAINST.

Why It Matters

• The 480,000‑share increase expands the pool available for equity awards to executives and employees, which can affect dilution and future compensation expense; the full terms are in the filed Amended ALTEIP (Exhibit 10.1).
• Re‑electing the full board and ratifying the auditor indicates continuity in governance and oversight. The favorable advisory vote on executive pay (non‑binding) signals investor support for management compensation practices, while rejection of the consent‑by‑written‑consent proposal preserves the current processes for stockholder action.
